<br><br><div>Well, I finally finished <i>The Book of the Long Sun</i>. I thought it was wonderful, but I do (of course!) have a few questions. The first is, how did Quetzal get on the <i>Whorl</i>? The inhumi are natives of Green, so maybe he found some way aboard the <i>Whorl</i> while it was in orbit? If so, it would seem that they were in orbit for some time, since Quetzal obviously spent several years on board. Also, why would he try, in his last moments, to get the settlers to go to Green? As food for other inhumi? I haven't read <i>The Book of the Short Sun </i>yet, so
if these inhumi-related questions are answered there, just tell me to read and find out :-)<br>
